Abstract:

Objective

To evaluate the diagnostic value of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nasal screening in MRSA surgical site infection (SSI).

Methods

PubMed, EMBASE CNKI and WANFANG DATA were searched for studies evaluating MRSA nasal screening and development of MRSA SSI. The time of inclusion was from the establishment of the database to March 2019. Quality evaluation was carried out using QUADAS-2. Data analysis was performed using STATA software to estimate pooled sensitivity, specifcity, positive likelihood ratio (PLR) and negative likelihood ratio (NLR), positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV).

Results

Ten studies, comprising 39 831 patients, met our inclusion criteria. The pooled sensitivity and specifcity of MRSA nares screen for MRSA SSI were 37% (95% CI: 27%, 48%) and 95% (95% CI: 94%, 96%), respectively. The PLR was 7.98 (95% CI: 6.37,10.0) and the NLR was 0.66 (95% CI: 0.57, 0.77). The PPV was 6.9%, the NPV was 99.3%, and DOR was 12.0 (95% CI: 8.62, 16.8). Heterogeneity arose from the methods used in MRSA screening (PCR/culture). Deeks funnel plot showed that the data and a low probability of publication bias.

Conclusions

Nares screening for MRSA had a high specificity and NPV for ruling out MRSA SSI. MRSA nares screening is a valuable tool to streamline empiric antibiotic therapy, especially among patients with SSI who are not colonized with MRSA.
